Fratricide rules

One incident I remembered about fraticide. A friend of mine related a
story about a group of Stukas in WWII orbiting the battlefield and
waiting for a call, when suddenly one of their group vanished. The
remainders all went into evasive manouevers, called for fighter support
and tried to see where the enemy fighters where. Then another stuka
vanished. They eventually worked out that they were in the flight path
of an artillery barrage!

Perhaps a random selection of friendly unit to hit? ^_^

Fratricide in DSII and SGII
---------------------------
Assume that the roll for support is also a check for possible
fraticide. Rolling under the number required means that the support
strike is possibly targeted on a random friendly unit.
	Roll the command element's quality dice versus their leadership.
Rolling under or equal to the leadership number indicates that the
incoming support strike is badly planned, and goes ahead. Rolling
higher means that the bad support mission is discarded.
	If the supporting Aerospace, Artillery or VTOL unit rolls equal
to or
under it's leadership number, the unit attacks a randomly selected
friendly unit or, for VTOLs, a nearby friendly unit. Rolling higher
means that the unit recognises the target as friendly and aborts the
mission on its own initiative.

Seem more reasonable? Thoughts?
